Watched the video. I’ve seen quite a few of your reviews, I enjoy them. This sucks about your “leaning tower of Elektra” and it’s a position I’ve been in plenty with sideshow.
You’re right though, they’re a business. They don’t give a $#!+ other than their ability to make money. I’m sure the artists there love their craft but they aren’t the people who deal with sales and money, for those people it’s a job, and they know in cases like these they already made their money from the problem statue and despite any disappointment we’re going to keep buying things based off the way they’re originally presented to us anyway. Like you said, you have 7 more statues coming from them. They got your Elektra money. They will get more of your money. What incentive do they have to go the extra mile? None. To make you a happy customer? Sounds nice and of course they want happy customers, in general that leads to continued sales, but ultimately money is more valuable to them. If I have your money and know I’m getting more anyway what reason would I have to change my behavior? The only way sideshow would change these types of policies and responses is if they started losing significant money. That’s business.
I like that you made a video about the problem though. More people need to do that. I should make a video about my leaning Rogue that I didn’t cause, the entire journey I’ve had with it since it arrived broken up until now.
